Trumpet Solo
Chords and lyrics:
(Intro)
D#
And for all of the sweet loving that
G#
I have received
In the sun in the rain
A#
By the moon by the sea
There is one time that I'm thinking of
G
One time where one woman
D#
Did knock me off my feet
And my knees were shaking
G#
And my jaw was dropping
And my eyes were squinting
A#
And my smile was growing
And my pants were bulging
G
And my hands were sweating
And my chest was beating
G#
So I cry 'excuse me,
A#
What is the secret to your song?'
(Verse 1)
D# G#
Cause when you're walking along
A# G
When you're walking along:
D# G#
Your legs are a melody my hands
A#
Would like to play
G
And your hips are a note
That does take me away
D# G#
And your face and your eyes and your hair
A# G
And your waist and your smile
D#
Drive me to distraction
G# A#
She turned and she gave the evil eye
G
'why thankyou' she said
D# G#
Then she sigh 'ah there's one thing
A# G
I think you failed to mention:'
D#
'What?' I said then she said
G#
'It's the rhythm you forgot'
A# G
And right then I knew what was what
D#
And she snuck to my lips
G#
And she kissed them
A#
Said 'young man
G
I'll show you some rhythm'
(Trumpet Solo) D# - G# - A# - G
And she'll show you some rhythm
(Verse 2)
Em
And since then ha
D G
The rhythm's been running through my veins
C
In my thoughts in my eyes
Em
In my head it's insane
D
It's the thing that does drive me
To scream
G
On the street when I think of some
C
Places it's taken me
Em D G
I feel horny when I thinking of some of that rhythm in my mind
C
What she gave what she gives to me
Em
All of the time
D
Say a little bit of sweet loving in your day
G
All my friends know it keeps the
C
Bad thoughts away
Em D
So sing with your hips my baby
G C
When you're dancing to this tune
Em D
And when this tune is through
We'll sneak to some place
G C
And continue to:
D
Say sing with your hips my baby
When you're dancing to this tune
And when this tune is through
We'll sneak to some place and
Continue to -
She said I'll show you some rhythm
D# - G# - A# - G
And she'll show you some rhythm
D# - G# - A# - G
